Behind the Screen: The Challenge: Battle of the Bloodlines- Johnny Bananas

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

When I reposted the Vinny>>>Bananas thing I meant it as in likability. I haven't seen Vinny compete so idk about competition wise.

Vinny>>>>Bananas lol I am in the minority , I guess

I agree.


How can anyone say Vinny is greater than Bananas without actually seeing him compete on the challenge yet? Some of you people assume a lot based on nothing.

She's saying he's better looking not better lol.

I think people were referring to Vinny being better than bananas in the appearance and eye candy department

Challenge 17#66

If Johnny and Vinny get eliminated it will be on account of Vinny, not Johnny.

Oh please, let's not act like he's invincible, Leroy beat him last season. I wouldn't sleep on Vinny, he is huge and was a nfl free agent.

He did have Leroy beat until they rolled out of bounds in that first round and had to reset, but X Battle is Leroy's game. Beat Wes in BOTE 1 and Bananas of course last season. I do not think Johnny B is unbeatable, I just do not see them exiting this game because of him. But they can always throw a curve and make an even playing field elimination to where Johnny or Vinny could be vulnerable to losing. That is the only way I see either of them losing.


Bananas won x battle too genius, and two similar eliminations against big guys before. So that argument is invalid.

I was talking about looks...who I think is cuter

v123#68

I'm also in agreement that Vinny looks waaaay better than bananas. People saying Vinny is a fat head but nah, he just has the skull and bone structure of someone , healthy robust and strong. A lot of rugby and football , players that are manly have that type of jock bone structure. If anything it's Bananas head that has always been wimpy and weak and narrow looking like an actual banana or one of those shrunken heads used in rituals from indigenous tribes. He's a lot like Jenna: no bone structure in the face whatsoever hence the double Chins.

Now we have somebody on here who looks like Jay the elf making fun of Bananas appearance,bro look in the mirror,hahahahahaha

v123#70

Jay is actually pretty good looking facially regardless of what people think about his height or personality

also the person that U think might or might not be me can pretty much get anyone they want, I assure you

It's so cute how you Have your period Every time someone comments negatively on bananas though.  r u a low testosterone beta boy in real life too that pines after men like bananas? Did your dad raise you to be this obedient to other men? I think you might have a "jfreeze" on the contents between your legs because no male with hormonally balanced adequate amounts of T acts like such a slavish ***** to another man unless he cut ur cock(off) or cut ur paycheck

audreyhorne#71

Really? Are you sure about that? I'm not saying you're lying, I'm just surprised. I don't think anyone in the world can say they can get "anyone they want." Human attraction is much more complicated than that.

v123#72

if you check off a couple of things on a list like being attractive with a nice car or whatever then you pretty much can have your way with anybody. not every single individual....but certainly a good amount of. vasty majority of people are very basic and materialistic so you're giving them too much credit when you say that human attraction is complicated imo. most people are not that special, intelligent, moral or "complex" at all, theyre pretty much reptiles when it comes to this sort of thing and if they get a special "feeling" between their legs from someone then they'll pretty much give that person a pass

we saw it in previous seasons all the time with people like CT and more recently with zach last season. he pretty much shit all over jonna and acted like a piece of crap all the way around but i doubt any girl or gay guy would actually care. zach looks good enough that he can pretty much be whoever he wants and treat people in anyway and people will still throw themselves at his feet, as we saw from jenna's actions

u know of tindr and how popular it is right? youre pretty much judged on whether youre worthy or not simply based on your face. thats about as basic and not complex as it gets

YES. 

But 5'8" is really that short? It's average height imo.

No you're right it's average but a lot of people don't like guys who are that height for whatever reason.

its about average height or maybe just a dash under

people rip on him hard for it though, more than they woudl any other cast member because they dont like his personality from explosion. derrick and cohutta are much shorter but few people get on their case about it because they are fan favorites. jay does has a handsome face though but few people want to acknowledge that because they hate him

and to add to that he has a very big body out of porportion with his head. So a lot of times he looks fat, and in some cases he is a fatty (Rivals 2)

Mr. Beautiful#86

I am well aware, I watched all of those seasons. I was giving Leroy credit for taking out two great competitors in that elimination game. But that is exactly why I do not think Bananas will be the reason they'd go home. He is tough to get out of the house, even when put into an elimination round. Again it is just my opinion, as we haven't seen Vince compete yet. Regardless, I am rooting for them both as I am a big Bananas fan.
